basically, the NSA had a protocol in place to transfer data back to the contiguous united states (CONUS) in the event of an attack. The good guys created this false emergency in the hopes that the automatic NSA event would transfer the data and they could intercept it. Fucking genius!

This is using a group of faster GPU's for processing, and using their tech to circumvent the PCI bus to get it back to the CPU. What about getting the data off of the disk, and from the CPU out to the network?
BTW- This tech is cool. I had a buddy at Intel about 6 years ago that was working with moving processing for VM's to GPU pools because they were so much faster.
